South Carolina Gamecocks LB Jasper Brinkley has been added to the Lombardi Award watch list.

According to the team's website, "Brinkley, a 6-2, 262-pound middle linebacker from Thomson, Ga., was a first-team All-SEC selection by the Associated Press in 2006 after registering a team-leading 107 tackles, including 85 solo stops. He was fourth in the league and 55th in the country in tackles, averaging 8.2 stops per game. Brinkley, who is also on the Bronko Nagurski Trophy pre-season Watch List along with the Walter Camp Player of the Year Watch List, is a consensus pre-season All-SEC first-team selection and an All-America candidate."

So how good is this kid? Where does he rank among the SEC's best defensive players?
